...but this is ridiculous:

"Published by Kodansha in Japan, the Edu-Manga are biographies in graphic novel form narrated by popular manga characters such as Astro Boy. The first five titles Digital Manga plans on releasing here in the States include manga biographies of Helen Keller, Albert Einstein, Mother Theresa, Beethoven, and Anne Frank."

Astro Boy and Anne Frank, together at last! Hey, I suppose it could be worse: it could have been Marvel...

That's awesome.

Its not nearly as good as that, but I have a Marvel Comic telling the life story of Pope John Paul II. Sadly, no guest appearances by anyone cool.

Man, this reminds me of the time that I found a fanfic with Goku and Anne Frank with Super Saiya-jin Hitler.

Ah, I remember that! It's a pity they didn't make it an ongoing series isntead of a one-shot, 'cause that would have guaranteed a Wolverine appearance in issue 2.

I think the edu-manga stuff is a good idea, and remember reading similar comic biographies as a kid. I just find the idea of Astro Boy describing the life of Anne Frank to be incredibly strange.
